Chapter 187 Honey Wine Princess

Lieyu felt that he might not live long.

She woke up drunk every day and went to bed dazed, and she could no longer tell the difference between day and night.

I have been living a life of drunkenness and dreaming for nearly half a year.

Wine tasting is something that must be done by the winemaker himself; no one else can do it for him.

There was no such trouble in the past.

Because mead production has always been low.

To make mead, honey needs to be diluted with water, then cooked at high temperature before making wine. This series of processes requires precise control, and each step takes a lot of time and effort.

Honey has always been an expensive food, and the amount available for crafting is limited.

Brewing mead can be said to be a delicate job that requires both money and patience.

But since Lieyu came to the fortress, this situation has changed completely.

After drinking the honey wine she made, the dwarves reached a consensus: as long as she was willing to stay in the fortress and make wine for the dwarves, she would have plenty of honey and other things! And the dwarves would give her as much as she wanted.

All to make a better wine than this!

They even gave Lieyu a nickname, calling her the "Honey Wine Princess".

The Fire Furnace Clan passed down the story that the ancestors of the dwarves were friends with many princesses. Those princesses were either of noble status or had experienced adventures, but they were all beautiful and charming noble ladies.

Lieyu felt that this title was totally unsuitable for him.

She was not a noble lady, but just a female hunter who had been climbing mountains and fishing in the sea since she was a child. She was already in her thirties and no longer young.

Lieyu knew that her appearance was not outstanding. How could an adventurer who had been exposed to the sun and rain maintain a fair and tender complexion? But she didn't care.

She had a pair of hands covered with fine wounds, but they were dexterous and powerful. She could climb trees easily, bend the bow and shoot arrows, grab stones on the cliffs and flying birds, and collect honey skillfully.

She has a pair of tireless legs, can run continuously like a rabbit, and can accurately kick the criminals in the vital points.

She has an adventurer's face, and dirty mud and sweat are her best battle decorations.

Lieyu was once blocked at the entrance of a cave by a pack of lions, and was chased by man-eating crabs in the water. She was ambushed by adventurers, and also encountered merchants with ulterior motives...but she was not afraid at all.

Adventurers must learn to live with a smile.

But now, she was a little scared.

For the first time, Lie Yu truly felt that she might die drunk in the Dwarf Fortress. If she died in this way, she would be following in the footsteps of her great-grandfather, which made her headache worse.

She rubbed her forehead with her hand and drank a large glass of water. Her head was a little foggy and her body was swaying.

"Are you okay?" A dwarf supported her.

"I'm fine... I just have a headache. Drinking some honey will make it go away."

Lieyu took one from the densely packed jars on the wall, scooped out a spoonful of honey with a spoon, put it into the water and stirred it, then tilted his head back and drank it.

Honey water can sober you up, which is also a small discovery made by the Lieyu family.

When she came to her senses a little, she noticed that the dwarf standing in front of her had no beard. It was the female dwarf Huoshaoyun - also Lieyu's roommate, living in the same room with her.

"You gave me a fright yesterday."

The female dwarf laughed, revealing her wide gums: "I helped you back, but you were singing and dancing there, and even said that you wanted to make rose wine with the roses from the Valley of the Gods."

"What's the name of the song you sang?"

The fire cloud imitated the staggering steps and sang out of tune: "Rose, rose, I love you~"

Lieyu's ears turned red, and she quickly reached out to stop him: "That's enough!"

Huoshaoyun asked her curiously, "Is there really a giant white rose in the Valley of Gods in the East Continent? There are straits and mountains there, as well as many extraordinary creatures. That's where we, the Blast Furnace Prodigy, are going next."

"some."

Lie Yu touched his burning ears with his hands: "Mr. Yanjiu was training there, fighting against the powerful grass there repeatedly. It was a very powerful creature that was very difficult to deal with... and that's where I saw the White Rose."

"It is very large, taller and more eye-catching than the surrounding pine trees, surrounded by fresh floral scents, and it sprays out sharp thorns, which are both beautiful and dangerous. Only green swallowtails and stink swallowtails can get close to it without being attacked."

Huoshaoyun listened with longing: "If we use that kind of rose to make wine, it will definitely be very fragrant, right?"

“…”

Lie Yu looked helpless: "At that time, Mr. Yan Jiu couldn't even get close. The thorns of the white rose were too strong. If we can get the withered petals, maybe there will be a way."

"We'll go find the petals, can you make rose wine?"

"If I could get it, I think I could."

Lieyu saw that the other party was not joking and promised seriously.

"Then it's a deal!"

The two sides bumped fists and then opened their fingers.

This is a custom of the Firewood Clan to make a vow.

Huoshaoyun asked again: "Besides that, have you ever been to the Treetop City in the Valley of the Gods?"

“I have seen it, but it didn’t climb the tree.”

Lieyu recalled: "The red pine trees there are poisonous. If you fall into them, you will be poisoned easily. I followed Mr. Yanjiu and saw from afar that the pine squirrels on the trees were always busy. Although they can't talk, they would exchange pine nuts with us for wheat cakes. They are a group of very friendly guys."

"oh……"

Seeing that Huoshaoyun looked worried, Lieyu realized that something might have happened to her.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"No." The female dwarf said, "Yancheng has set up a martial arts association. They are organizing martial arts practitioners to formally enter the Valley of Gods to check out the situation there."

Lie Yu had no interest in this.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Now she only thinks about three things: brewing, brewing, and brewing.

"There's one more. I almost forgot."

Huoshaoyun took out a necklace from his armor. The body of the necklace was made of brass and was very delicate, while the pendant was a pure white shell.

"This is a rare and excellent equipment!"

The female dwarf said excitedly: "Even if it is the Furnace Clan, to make such a good thing, it needs a lot of precious materials, and a lot of complicated craftsmanship and forging!"

"You'll understand once you put it on."

Lieyu tried to put the necklace around her neck.

After fastening the buckle, she felt a warm force surrounding her, which immediately made her dizzy brain clear.

"It's incredible..." Lie Yu gently touched the necklace around his neck.

"This is specially made for you because we know you get drunk often. With this, you won't get drunk easily."

Huoshaoyun said seriously: "This necklace is called [Honey Wine Princess], and its ability is [Drunkenness Immunity]. It uses many extraordinary materials, including the scent sac of the musk ladybug, the oil secreted by the sandworm, and the omnipotent stone found by the fishman... As long as you wear it, you will not get drunk. We failed hundreds of times before forging it successfully. It was made especially for you."

Lieyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The dwarves were very obsessed with the title of princess.

"Thank you!"

She felt emotional.

The Fireside People are indeed passionate and will treat their friends sincerely and without reservation.

Lieyu secretly made up his mind to brew the best mead to give back to these dwarf friends.

Suddenly, someone outside shouted, "Everyone come out and see, there's a new sun! Hey, this time the sun is blue!"

Lieyu and Huoshaoyun walked out of the fortress.

She raised her head.

A blue sun slowly rose in the sky, emitting a faint light like the sea, facing another golden sun in the distance.

The dwarves all looked up at the two suns in the sky, marveling at them.

The other two members of [Blast Furnace Wizards] were also present.

Gao Youzhuang crossed his arms and said, "I wonder if this new sun will be expelled by the gods... I hope it can understand things. Otherwise, it will end up like the Dark Sun."

"No, no, look carefully."

Wei Ermeng beside him said, "Agao, feel it with your heart. This blue sun carries the power of Lord Yaoshen... Do you feel it?"

"It really is...it turns out that the sun was created by Lord Yao."

"Hey, don't be distracted, look carefully at the sun, you can make a wish... It's called the Wishing Star."

"It's a gift from God! Come on, everyone, make a wish!"

Just by looking up at the blue sun, everyone can immediately understand that this blue sun carries incredible divine power. It is listening to the voices of every Yao God believer. If you pray to it and make a vow, you will get the attention of the gods.

Lieyu touched the [Mead Princess] on his neck.

She crossed her index fingers, looked at the wishing star, and prayed silently in her heart.

O omnipotent God Yao, please let me try out the best recipe for honey wine as soon as possible...
